SO focusing on light and colour, the first two images are worksheets from a schoolism course of painting chrome and painting various materials:

Here are 5 life painting I did throughout the week, I found these to be hard as I needed to finish these before the overcast lighting disappeared or it became too dark for the ones on the gray surfaces. The ones on the brown surface were setup under a controlled getto-style light so I had more time to finish them.

The above are ordered by the order which I did them and I saw significant improvement after each piece. The ones done more plein-air like trained me to be faster and skip some of the noodling and procrastination.
I learned a lot about how real light worked in these instead of the theory I learned from the schoolism course videos from above. Also : CAMERAS ARE HELLA SHIT. I realised how crap cameras were at capturing the real image and most photos often have the wrong exposure and using photoes as reference could be fatal as a artist if the photographer used filters or wasn'y highly experienced with exposure.
